Touman (), from Old Chinese (220 BCE): *do-mɑnᴬ, is the earliest named chanyu (leader) of the Xiongnu tribal confederation, reigning from , directly preceding the formation of the Xiongnu empire.

==Life== Competing with the Xiongnu for supremacy were the Dōnghú or 'Eastern Barbarians' and the Yuezhi. In 215 BCE, Qin Shi Huang, the founding emperor of the Qin dynasty, sent a 300,000-strong army headed by General Meng Tian into the Ordos region and drove the Xiongnu northward for 1000 li (about ). "Touman, unable to hold out against the Qin forces, had withdrawn to the far north, where he held out for over ten years."
